Macbryde Homes Names New Managing Director

Gwyn Jones assumes the lead role from Simon Macbryde

Macbryde Homes has announced that Gwyn Jones has assumed the role of Managing Director as the firm focuses on further success in the second half of 2018. It is the first time in the family-owned business’s 33-year history that this senior role has been held by someone outside of the family.

Gwyn, who has a degree from Liverpool John Moores University, commenced his career in the commercial department at Anwyl Construction, before joining Lovell Partnerships as a Quantity Surveyor. He joined St Asaph-based Macbryde Homes four years ago. He has since enjoyed rapid progression through the firm and was most recently the company’s Commercial Director. Commenting on his promotion, he comments:

“I feel incredibly fortunate that my career has developed in the way it has and I’ve enjoyed taking on new challenges at every opportunity. The past four years at Macbryde Homes have allowed me to further my career within a company that successfully blends the development of prestigious homes with a commitment to building the best team it can.”

High-Quality New Homes in Cheshire and North Wales

With developments throughout North Wales and the North West of England, Macbryde Homes remains committed to delivering quality, high-specification properties throughout the region. However, in an increasingly competitive market and with ambitious growth plans in place, Chairman Simon Macbryde believes the time is right to hand over day to day running of the business to ensure continued fresh thinking. He comments:

“Macbryde Homes prides itself on the reputation it has carefully developed over the last three decades; the homeowners we have met; and the awards we have been presented with – not least of all two more LABC Building Excellence Awards for our work in North Wales in just the last few weeks.

“However, to ensure our continued growth and success, I believe it is necessary to provide the Macbryde team with a rejuvenated leadership and Gwyn proved to be the ideal candidate for this role. His rise through the business has been rapid but entirely well-deserved given his unwavering commitment to pushing expectations and delivery to an ever-higher standard. I’m personally looking forward to continuing working with him to and to see how Macbryde Homes develops under his leadership.”

Macbryde Homes is currently marketing developments in Ellesmere Port, Wrexham, Old Colwyn, and Abergele but with the need for quality housing at an all-time high, it is focused on expanding its operations through increased output and a stronger presence in the region. Gwyn adds:

“We have ambitious growth plans which are focused on doubling the number of quality new homes we complete. To facilitate this, we have made some key appointments over the past 12 months including Simon Finlay as Head of Development.

“Since the turn of the year, we have exchanged contracts on several new sites and have had offers accepted on a number of further sites which we are working towards contracting and submitting for planning soon as possible.

“I am committed to ensuring that in the coming years, Macbryde plays a significant role in the delivery of much-needed quality homes across North Wales and the North West of England.”

30-year old Gwyn is married with four children and away from work he can be found juggling a busy schedule of ballet lessons and football matches!

"Buying our first home was a daunting prospect but Macbryde took care of us every step of the way.

From choosing our kitchen to being handed our keys; the whole journey has been a wonderful experience.

For two newbies such as ourselves; I can't imagine a more enjoyable way to purchase a property for a first-time buyer. We're so excited to start making memories in our beautiful new Macbryde home."

ALEXANDER & GEMMA, ERDDIG PLACE

"We love the house, Macbryde Homes have produced such a beautiful home and are a pleasure to deal with. A big thank you to the Macbryde Team for their professional and personal welcome to Bryn Y Mor!"

GEMMA SMITH, BRYN Y MOR

"During the whole process of purchasing my first home with Macbryde Homes has been a pleasure. I first contacted Macbryde homes before work had even started on Oakley Park, the staff were helpful in explaining the different house types and layouts which made my decision much easier. They proceeded to invite me down to another of their developments to introduce themselves and give me an idea what my chosen house type would look like. When making my choices the Macbryde staff have been patient and helpful, making a process that would be daunting and stressful very easy and exciting.
Dianne and the staff at Macbryde homes have made buying my first home as stress free as possible."

JACK COOPER, OAKLEY PARK

“We bought our first home with Macbryde at Bryn Y Mor Old Colwyn in June 2017. Lindsey from the sales team has been very helpful from the moment we first enquired about the possibility of buying our first home and through all the stages that followed over the months. We were kept informed of all progress either through email or phone calls. The site manager and team were helpful with any enquiries that we had. We are very pleased with our first home and in the future we would like to buy through Macbryde again.”

KATY ALLISON & CHRISTOPHER LITTLER, BRYN Y MOR

"I bought my home from Macbryde Homes in 2011, and couldn't be more pleased! The property was built to the highest standard. The staff at Macbryde offered the best service possible, and were there from beginning to end!. From the sales staff to the site workers. We took part in the ‘first time local buyers scheme’ and would recommend this to any first time buyer! I would, when the time comes, look to buy my next house from Macbryde!”

MR JOHN, VICTORIA PARK, LLANDUDNO JUNCTION

“We moved in to our new Macbryde home in Bebington, Wirral on the 25th of November 2011, the move was smooth and easy. The site manager was there to show us how all the appliances worked and to give advice for all the utilities etc. We had asked for some additional extras to be done before we moved in, and they were all in place and neatly finished. The house is nice and warm and well insulated and we love it. As with all new build houses, we had a few minor teething problems, but they were taken note of and speedily resolved. The purchase of the house was conducted in a very friendly way and we feel that we are now friends with the sales staff not just customers. The site manager has a caring attitude towards the house buyers and all the workmen were friendly and polite. They even took their boots off when coming in to house, so as not to leave dirty foot marks. All in all we are pleased with our purchase and would gladly recommend Macbryde houses as we feel they are well built.”
